The U.S. Department of Labor is releasing a $3,330,000 National Emergency Grant increment to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry to help with the clean-up and recovery efforts after Hurricane Irene, which hit Aug. 26-30, 2011, and Tropical Storm Lee, which hit Sept. 3, 2011.

The funds are being awarded in an effort to support temporary jobs in affected areas.
